Upregulated Tripartite Motif 47 Could Facilitate Glioma Cell Proliferation and Metastasis as a Tumorigenesis Promoter.
2021
Introduction. Tripartite motif 47 (TRIM47) belongs to a category of the TRIM family. It takes part in cancer tumorigenesis, thus demonstrating important functions across numerous carcinomas. Unfortunately, it is still elusive towards TRIM47 expression, characteristic, and biological function in brain gliomas. Methods. Public database analysis was applied to analyze TRIM47 expression, and quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was applied to detect the expression of TRIM47 in 9 paired tissues of glioma. The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and the Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas (CGGA) databases were applied to evaluate the overall survival (OS). Gene Ontology (GO) term and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathways were applied to analyze differentially expressed gene (DEG) functions. In vitro experiments were performed to validate TRIM47-mediated effects on glioma cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. Results. Compared to that in normal tissues, TRIM47 expression was greatly higher in glioma tissues, and its expression level was associated with different grades of glioma. Our data indicated that highly expressed TRIM47 displayed an association with the poor prognosis of glioma patients. Ablating TRIM47 obviously impeded glioma cell invasion and migration. Conclusion. TRIM47 could modulate glioma cell proliferation, invasion, and migration. Highly expressed TRIM47 exhibited a correlation with poor prognosis. All data imply that TRIM47 is a probable biomarker for glioma and has the potentiality to become a newly generated target for glioma treatment.
